I think only ROX-Session and the configuration applets use it so far.
The capplets use it to communicate config changes to the session, and
it's also used so that the app icon's menu can make the session do
things like show its message log, using a simple script.

Hi list.
I recently installed Rox on my homebrewed GNU/Linux2.6/Xorg6.8.2-system.
Looks really nice sofar, but I have a small problem with the way Rox
remembers 'per-directory'-settings.
If I understand it correctly, it is possible to make Rox remember
settings like iconsize, icon/list-view, thumbnails et al.
The settings is added to an xml-file named
~/Choices/ROX-filer/Settings.xml .
The above works nice and dandy as long as I keep on adding different
directories. But as soon as I save the settings of a directory already in
the Settings.xml-file, Rox deletes the old file and creates a new file
with only the most recent directory in it.
Am I missing some configuration on my side, or is this a known problem?
Google tells me nothing..
Thanks in advance. /Henrik

No, it was an unknown problem. Fixing it now.

Cool. I read into your wording that it is reproducible on your side?
If you need any info on my setup then don't hesitate to ask. I wasn't
sure about all the dependencies of Rox. Dbus for example (I haven't
been able to figure out why I would need it, but i've seen it mentioned
together with Rox)
Thanks alot. Great piece of software btw.. /Henrik

Ok. That means I don't have to bother with dbus quite yet. Thanks for
the info..
